Re: *complain* Fox and Ravens Send a noteboard - 24/03/2011 04:01:39 PM
I thought we were done with these posts. They started popping up every couple of weeks and the response on grrms website seemed to put a stop to it but I guess not everybody has grown up a little.

He'll finish when he finishes and by recent reports, that will be right away. Yes, GRRM takes 4-5-6 years to complete one of his excellent books. It has always been this way and will probably continue until he finishes the series. Honestly though nobody here needs somebody else to point out or complain how long grrm takes to write a book. Everybody knows. Learn to deal with it.


Actually, it seems like years ago, he was putting out something every year or two. It's really hasn't always been his way. He put out the first three 3 books in about the same time to put out the fourth. That's different.
Go Hokies!

CS/CpE. Yay engineering!
